What size bolts hold the crankshaft pulley on a 2006 Kia Sorento?
I want you to go to this url, it's the official KIA forum dealing with older Sorentos.
https://www.kia-forums.com/2003-2010-sorento-forum/53820-sorento-crank-bolt.html It's free to create a login.
It details the need to replace the crank pulley bolt with a new one supplied by KIA. This bolt, if reused, can break causing a catastrophic engine failure. Do not buy any other bolt., it's not worth trying to save a few pennies.I have a 2005 Sorento and had my local KIA dealer do this job and other work as long as the front cover is off, replace the water pump, the timing belt idlers and tensioner assembly. It's cheaper to d all that at one time than to go back and have to redo the cover removal. Hope this helps.

no
if the filter or fuel system was faulty , it would not restart immediately
I would be checking items like the crank position /cam position sensors
immobilizer system
ignition switch ( dangly things hanging off the key switching the ignition off)_
try running the fault codes to see if anything else like the dti sensor module has loose connections or is faulty
Air conditioner making loud noise
The only time i have encountered this problem it turned out to be a cracked fan wheel in the blower. fooled me until the fanwheel disengrated and locked up the blower motor.. could be trash in the blower too like leaves, plastic bag etc.
Remove factory radio
This is one that you can stare at all day. the trim pieces that include the air vents (usually woodgrain) will come off and expose the screws that hold the radio in. They are held in by spring clips, a gentle pry will get you started. Here is a website that shows how to remove one for a cell phone mount:
http://www.bracketron.com/main/xmain_landing_page.php You may have to take the climate controll screws out to get the radio out far enough to reach the plugs on the back. You should be able to figure out the rest. good luck, and be gentle.. the trim is getting cheaper and cheaper, and is really easy to break.
Car is burning lots of
oil change is ok air filter clean plugs ok no check engine on using ac more often or injectors are dirty put a injector cleaner in the tank at next fill up
2006 Kia Sorento door ajar alarm keeps going off.
check which door switch is causing the problem and replace it or open each door and push the door switch do 1 door at a time not all at the same then the light will always stay on even the rear door as well the latch (rear window ) if you find the switch causing the problem you can unscrew the switch and pull it out to see if the wire is ok as well the ground on the body gets a little corrision on it clean up a little around the screw at the switch on the door side of body pass a litt;e sandpaper before installing it after all this everythings ok and the door light is on still check that the rubber protection on the door switch is not keeping the switch on
Engine light what could be the problem
need to have a scanner to check codes if you gassed up lately and left the car running it is the evap system malfunction you are not suppost to leave the car running during fueling if not the question try to check the gas cap first to see if tight or the gasket is deformed under the cap you can put a little grease or vaselin on the cap that screws in to the tank side and if you do not have a scanner available unplug the battery for 15 minutes and put it back on then start the car if the light doesnt come on it was a intermitt problem if it lights up right away then you have a malfunction of a sensor and need to repair it
